Rail Ticket Insurance Now Available at Counters: ₹10 Lakh Cover for 45 Paise

The Indian Railways has announced the extension of its rail ticket insurance scheme to counter bookings. Previously, this facility was only available for online bookings. Passengers can now purchase insurance at railway counters across the country for a nominal fee of 45 paise, providing them with a coverage of ₹10 lakh in case of unforeseen circumstances during their journey. This move aims to provide greater accessibility and convenience to passengers who prefer booking their tickets offline. The scheme offers comprehensive coverage for various eventualities, including accidents, injuries, and medical emergencies.
